Been camping with the kids for a few years now, we bought a cheap caravan about 6 months before covid hit (perfect timing as prices went crazy after covid). Been everywhere from little camp sites to big resort style sites and would recommend the resort style for younger kids, they have good playgrounds, pools and games rooms next to the camp kitchens. There is always lots of other kids they can play with and they always sleep well at nights because they are tired. Win win for the parents. Oldest says he doesn't want to go camping any more but when he gets out in the river or down to the beach he has a great time. We don't let them have iPads or phones while camping. Just let them have fun, be kids and get dirty.

Peer pressure, or just cause my friends were doing it. Mostly pills and powders. Ecstasy, coke and speed at all night raves at the weekends, and sometimes midweek with friends around playing Mario kart on the N64, Then I grew up and haven't touched anything for 20 years.
